Aseprite
Aseprite lets you create 2D animations for video games. From sprites, to pixel-art, retro style graphics, and whatever you like about the 8-bit and 16-bit era. It has a color mode, which tell you how many colors the image can handle. All images in the sprite are in one specific mode, you cannot mix RGB images with Indexed images in the same sprite. It contains a set of layers. You can see them in the Timeline. The most important concept here is that there are two kind of layers: the background layer for opaque sprites, and transparent layers. A sprite can contain only one background layer, but several transparent layers. It contains animation frames. Each frame has a duration, i.e. how many milliseconds the frame must be on screen when the animation is being played. Integrate Aseprite in your assets pipeline with the command-line interface (CLI). Store several animations in one texture atlas.

Pyxel Edit
Pyxel Edit is a pixel art drawing application especially designed for working with tiles. Place tiles to form a level, edit them directly to see how they all work together, then export your tileset and the level data, and load it into your game. Tiles can even be flipped and rotated, still being editable and synced. This feature is inspired by the awesome Pixothello and Cosmigo Pro Motion, but taken one step further. It also supports making animations, and exporting them as sprite sheets or animated GIFs. Pyxel Edit was originally a free program, and the free version is still available. However continued development to make it a more solid and full featured application has taken a lot of the developers time so the next big update will be paid. Initially there will be a discounted beta version available to support continued development. Buyers of the beta will get the normal priced later versions without further cost.

SpriteCook
SpriteCook is an AI art tool that helps game developers create artwork around their own ideas. It’s built for the ongoing process of making a game: exploring a visual direction, trying different looks, and adding new assets as the project takes shape.
You can start with a description or reference image and develop a style that suits your game. Themes and saved presets help you carry that direction into later work, so adding a new enemy or inventory item doesn’t mean starting from scratch each time. SpriteCook supports pixel art and other 2D styles, giving you room to experiment with the look of your project.
Animation is part of that workflow too. You can take generated or uploaded artwork, describe how it should move, and export the result as a sprite sheet for your game engine. This makes it useful for testing how a character looks and feels in motion alongside the mechanics you’re building.
